The phone accessory I like is the one with an ear piece several inches away from the mouthpiece – so you can have a somewhat private conversation – attached by a curly cord to the device that sits on a table or phone stand.

I have an Android, best slide typing keyboard ever… my wife has an iPhone 5, it is a POS, no matter which letter I think I am pressing, it always gets the one next to it… It is like using a blackberry.

Some years ago I was one of two people in the DVD/CD aisle at a store and she asked, “Which of these do I need?” I answered that it depended on what she wanted to do. She looked at me like I was nuts with a “Who asked you?” look.

I thought, “You did, Lady.”

A few moments later she asked another question and I thought, “Okay…” and answered it too.

Same look, more intense. I was expecting her to go anti-postal.

Then I noticed she had a cell phone in her hand and a cord running up to her ear.

As long as dumb phones are available I’ll have one. If texting is involved, I don’t do it. I don’t want to fall into an open manhole and make the evening news.

About Off the Mark

The off-the-wall humor of off the mark puts a refreshingly spin on the things we see everyday... from your favorite icons to your least favorite trends, from commercials to pets to computers. Slightly skewed and just a little twisted, off the mark scores a bull’s eye with readers looking for a laugh.
